4 True or False

4 True or False? Go first? Where? I didn't even know where I was going, but I sure didn't want to go there first. Officer Spence took me to Room 104. That's Dr. Brad's room. He's our school counselor. He helps kids with their problems. But I don't have any problems, so I don't have to see him. Dr. Brad doesn't come to school every day, because he works at a bunch of different schools. So his room was empty.

4对还是错？先走? 在哪里?我甚至不知道我要去哪里，但我肯定不想先去那里。 斯宾塞警官带我去了104房间。 那是布拉德医生的房间。他是我们学校的辅导员。 他帮助孩子们解决问题。 但我没有任何问题，所以我不必去见他。 布拉德医生不是每天都来学校，因为他在很多不同的学校工作。 所以他的房间是空的。

"Sit down!" ordered Officer Spence. I sat on the only chair in the room. There were wires sticking out of it and leading to a scary-looking machine on the table. "Where's Mr. Klutz?" I asked. "What did you do with him?" "He's probably in the slammer by now,"

“坐下！”斯宾塞警官命令道。 我坐在房间里唯一的一把椅子上。 有一些电线从里面伸出来，通向桌子上一个看起来很可怕的机器。 “克鲁茨先生在哪儿？”我问。 “你对他做了什么？”“他现在可能已经进监狱了。”

Officer Spence replied. Slammer? I never heard of a slammer. It sounded like some kind of a torture machine. "What's a slammer?" I asked. "He's in the pen," said Officer Spence. "How could Mr. Klutz fit inside a pen?" I asked. I didn't know what he was talking about. If Mr. Klutz was in a pen, it would have to be a really big pen. Where would the ink go? And how could anybody use a pen with a principal inside it? "Mr. Klutz is in stir," said Officer Spence. "He's in the Big House. The cooler. The joint. The clink. The pokey. The hoosegow. The calaboose." "Huh?" "He's in JAIL!" Officer Spence shouted. "Oh!" I said. "Why didn't you say so?"

斯宾塞警官回答。监狱? 我从没听说过监狱。 听起来像是某种酷刑机器。 “什么是slammer?”我问。 “他在围栏里，”斯宾塞警官说。 “克鲁茨先生怎么能钻进钢笔里呢？”我问。 我不知道他在说什么。 如果克鲁茨先生在一个笔里，那一定是一个很大的笔。 墨水去哪了？怎么会有人用里面有本金的笔呢？ “克鲁茨先生很激动，”斯宾塞警官说。 “他在大房子里。冷却器。 联合。发出叮当声。狭小的。 拘留所里。监狱。” “嗯?”“他在监狱里！”斯宾塞警官喊道。 “噢!”我说。“你为什么不早说呢？”

"Never mind about Klutz," Officer Spence told me. "Ten peanut butter and jelly sandwiches have been stolen this month. There's a crime wave sweeping Ella Mentry School, and I'm going to put a stop to it once and for all." Officer Spence looked really mad. He turned on the desk lamp and pointed it at my face. Then he hooked up a bunch of those scary wires to my arms and my head. "What are you doing?" I asked. "This machine is a lie detector," Officer Spence told me. "If you tell a lie, it will make a beeping sound. So you'd better tell the truth if you know what's good for you. Okay, let's get started. What's your name?" "A.J." I looked at the lie detector to see if it would beep. It didn't. "Very good," said Officer Spence, "and

“别管克鲁茨了，”斯宾塞警官告诉我。 这个月有十个花生酱和果冻三明治被偷了。 现在艾拉门特里学校正掀起一股犯罪浪潮，我要彻底制止它。” 斯宾塞警官看上去真的很生气。 他打开台灯，把它对准我的脸。 然后他在我的胳膊和头上绑了一堆可怕的电线。 “你在干什么？”我问。 “这台机器是测谎仪，”斯宾塞警官告诉我。 “如果你说谎，它会发出哔哔声。 所以如果你知道什么对你有好处，你最好说实话。 好了，我们开始吧。你叫什么名字？”“抗干扰” 我看了看测谎仪，看它会不会响。 它没有。“很好，”斯宾塞警官说，“而且

what does A.J. stand for?" "Arlo Jervis," I admitted. "That's right," Officer Spence said. "The lie detector didn't beep. So you must be telling the truth. Good boy. Do you like school, A.J.?" "No," I said. "That's true also," he said. "Tell me, Arlo Jervis, is there anything you like about school?" "No," I said. BEEP! "That's a lie!" Officer Spence said. "You like something. Or somebody."

A.J.代表什么？”“阿乐·杰维斯，”我承认。 “没错，”斯宾塞警官说。 测谎仪没有发出哔哔声。 所以你说的一定是实话。 好男孩。你喜欢学校吗，A.J.?”“不，”我说。 “这也是真的，”他说。 “告诉我，阿乐·杰维斯，你喜欢学校的什么地方？”“不，”我说。 哔哔!“那是骗人的！”斯宾塞警官说。 “你喜欢什么东西。或有人。”

"I do not," I said. BEEP! "Liar!" shouted Officer Spence. "I bet you like Andrea, that girl in your class with the curly brown hair, right?" "I do not!" I said. BEEP! "You're lying!" "I am not!" I shouted. "I hate Andrea!" BEEP!

“我不知道，”我说。哔哔!“骗子！”斯宾塞警官喊道。 “我打赌你喜欢安德里亚，就是你们班上那个棕色卷发的女孩，对吧？”“我没有！”我说。 哔哔!“你撒谎!”“我没有！”我叫道。 “我恨安德烈！”哔哔!
